IPL 2018: Probable Opening pairs from each team

CLT20 2012 Group A - Kolkata Knight Riders v Auckland Aces
IPL is set to begin from 7 April

#4 Delhi Daredevils

Gautam Gambhir

India v South Africa: Group B - 2011 ICC World Cup
Gambhir will be looking forward to from the front

Being the captain of the side it is quite obvious that he will be opening the innings. With an experience of 148 IPL matches, he has scored 4132 runs at an exceptional average of 31.78.

Gambhir has also captained the team of Kolkata Knight Riders and lead them to the coveted title twice in 2012 and 2014 respectively.

His effective on-field tactics uplift the entire team. Gambhir is also known to give steady starts to his team and make big scores.

Having Gambhir as an opener and a captain in the team will definitely boost up the entire team and will make the top order stronger.

Colin Munro

New Zealand v Bangladesh - 2nd T20
Munro's hard-hitting will be a treat to the spectators

Whenever we talk about hard hitting batsmen, Colin Munro is usually found at the top of the list.

The Kiwi batsman was the first cricketer to hit three centuries in the T20I cricket. He has played 45 T20Is in his career and scored 1173 runs at an astounding strike rate of 163.59.

Munro was adjudged with the man of the series in the recent T20I series against West Indies. He scored 223 runs at a strike rate of 197.34.

His recent form is a plus point for the Daredevils. Munro's hard-hitting performances are awaited by the entire team and the spectators.

He is undoubtedly the best top order batsmen which any of the teams could witness. Munro along with Gambhir can prove to be an indestructible opening pair in the season.
